Ginger AIes of Many Kinds.

"The demand for ginger ale." said a
manufacturer of that beverage recently
to reporter for the New York Mail and
Express, ''rapidly increases. About
twenty years ago, when L started in the
business, there were only thirty other
manufacturers. Now | simply make
the extract for others to put into port
able form. and these others have grown
from thirty to more than 800. Most of
the manufacturers use the same method.
They mix the extract with fine syrup,
dilute with water until an ordinary
bottle contains about fifteen drops of
ginger, and then put this into bottles
with a carbonic acid machine. Two
qualities are made, one for private use
and for first-claSS hotels and saloons,
and one for the regular bar room trade.
The difference is almost entirely in the
quality of the extract used. The best
quality sells at 81 or S1.20 a case of
twenty-four bottles. The cheaper kind
costs only 30 cents to 15 cents case.
"Three-fOurths of the SO-called i'm
ported article is manufactured here.
The bottles belonging to the fayOrite
brands are kept and sent to us to be re-
filed. We leave the labels intact. or il
they are damaged, paste on fac-similes,
and put in new cOrkS and metal cap
SuleS or tags. There is not one person
in thousand who can detect the fraud.
In one frSt-class hotel in this city | have
been refilling bottles for several years.
and suppose | shall continue to do so as
long as | am in the buSiness.'
''ls there any bad ginger ale in the
market?"
"Yes; there are two bad kinds, and
both are so bad that the board of health
should stop the manufacture of them.
They are made in large quantities in this
city and sold chiefly in beer and ice
cream saloons. One is made from cheap
ginger. and is dOctOred with red pepper
ard chemicals to give it bite. The men
who make it say that red pepper is good
for the stomach, but they carefully say
nothing about the chemicals. The
other and worse kind is German pro-
duction. Instead of making it of pure
ginger, they buy up wherever they can
spoiled and condemned ginger root
Some of them make their essence from
this and strengthen it with cayenne
pepper. Others grind it up and brew a
vile beer from it, and then flavor it
with red pepper. You can easily detect
this by letting it stand little. A thick
sediment forms at the bottom, and it
soon turns sour. Its cheapneSs, how
ever, recommends it to INSCRIPTIONS
Saloon-keeperS. 1t never costs more
than 30 cents caSe,and often as low as
IS cents"

Stole Her Children.

Several weeks ago Mrs. Bette Hor-
rail, wife of Perry l.. Horrall, of Pitts
burg. Pike county, Ind, eloped with
DR.. G. i. 3. Blackwell, physician of
that place. Blackwell was married
man and deserted large family. Mrs.
Horrall also left two children. A few
nights afterward Mrs. Horrall returned
secretly, having no doubt been aban-
doned by her paramour. She got a
horse and buggy and armed herself and
set out to the home of her children's
grandmother. She begged pitifully to
see her children-the oldest of which is
only six years of age. The grandmother
refused and told the woman the mother
should not disgrace the babies. The
mother then showed revolver and said
she would murder anybody who inter
fered with her. The woman grabbed
the babies and left for parts unknown.
When the husband returned the next
day he found his children had been kid
naped, and he is now securing the
country for them.

A RARE TAPESTRY
Owned by DIR. w. w. Day That
May be Exhibited at Minneap'

Owned by DIR. w. w. Day That
May be Exhibited at Minneap-
oils.
DR.. W. W. Day has, in New York,
tapestry, 1OX12 feet, representing Mary.
Queen of Scots, ,at the death of Douglas.
The needlework is in worsted silk, and
there are said to be but two that at all
compare with it in the country, and
these two are in the Smithsonian insti-
tute. The picture is the work of a Mrs.
Sherman and it is valued at
$4,000. the doctor having refused
$4,000 on several occasions. The pat
terms for the work were made in Ger
many, and are unrivalled in that line.
The directors of the Minneapolis eX-
position have been trying to secure it
for the exposition, but at present there
is hitch over the matter of tranSporta-
ton, involving a matter of several hun
dred dollars. 1t is quite likely that this
will be Strengthened out, and the tapes
try secured for the exposition. 1t re-
quires special care and space in trans
pOrtation. as it cannot be taken from
the frame or rolled or doubled up in any
way. In case it is secured it will un-
doubtedly be drawing card.
